HANUMANS OCEAN TRIP TO LANKA NAAGMATASURSA

By now devtas understood that Hanuman is unstoppable but they still wanted to test him so they asked Naagmata Sursa to test his valor and stop Hanuman midway. She grew taller and taller and transformed herself into a huge Rakshas woman and obstructed the path of Hanuman. Seeing a monster sitting in between his path Hanuman requested her to give him the path Sursa and Hanumanas he is on a mission to find Mother Sita. She replied,No one can cross the ocean without passing through my mouth. Come into my mouth. Saying that Sursa opened her huge mouth. Sursa paid no heed to Hanumans repeatedly request. Hanuman then said, Open up your mouth so big that I can pass. In delight, Sursa started to open her mouth wider and wider. In comparison to her mouth Hanumaji started to grow bigger and bigger. By now Sursas mouth was several times bigger than Hanuman.This is what Hanuman was waiting for, he shrank his size to that of a small mosquito and before Sursa could match up to that size Hanuman entered her large and ugly mouth and quickly slipped out of it. Sursa was very pleased with Hanumans quick thinking. She blessed him and Hanuman was on his way to Lanka.
